Hiding

HIDING & SURPRISING

Hiding is a natural cat behavior; it is not always a negative behavior.  Cats are uniquely predator and prey.  Thus, the ability to hide is important.  Most cats like to hide in quiet, dark spaces.  Cats in the wild look for places to hide to watch for prey and to be protected from prey.  Even while cats doze, they can be hyper-vigilant.  An enclosed hiding place helps cats relax and feel secure.

HIDING

Gracee is pictured above hiding under her favorite rug with only her head showing.   She usually sleeps on top of the rug. Do orange cats like orange rugs?   I used to have a blue rug there and she never slept on it or under it.

Gracee learned to hide under everything imaginable from her older brother, Tigger (who has crossed over the Bridge)  He taught her to burrow and hide under comforters, blankets, towels, etc.  Sometimes at night when I was ready to go to bed, I drew back the covers and there, all curled up and comfy, was Tigger.  Now, it is Gracee gazing up at me with her big, sleepy golden eyes.

GRACEE HIDES -- ALL BUT THE TAIL

Gracee usually sleeps on TOP of the orange rug but sometimes, she sleeps UNDER it.

Usually I sleep on top of the rug but sometimes, I hide under it.  My goofy brother, Inkee-Bear, always pesters me.  He makes me soooo mad!  Grrrrr.  Hsssss.  Click on the "Hiding" article to the right.
